21 Lessons Learned Developer-focused SW Improvement Experiences Senior management support & involvement Set policy, vision, strategies & goals Identify measures & monitor performance Dedicated resources to execute the strategies Educating project team leaders on benefits Educating practitioners on methods Seed funding for project team SW improvement initiatives Improvement initiatives must be run like a projects page 20

22 Defense Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 2003, Section 804 A new public law Enacted by Congress December 2002 DoD guidance issued March 2003 Requires military departments and select defense agencies to establish software acquisition process improvement programs Focus is on improving how the DoD acquires software page 21

23 Required Software Acquisition Improvement Process Areas DoD s initial minimum set Acquisition planning Requirements development & management Configuration management Risk management Project management & oversight Test & evaluation Integrated team management Solicitation & source selection Performance measurement (added by NAVAIR) Processes must be documented, performed and continuously improved page 22

24 NAVAIR s 804 Implementation Phase 1 Requirements (done 12/03) A. Build an SW acquisition process improvement CoP B. Identify NAVAIR Instructions that map to 804 C. Communicate 804 requirements PEO(A) 11/17; PEO(W) 11/24; PEO /2; PEO(T) 12/5 Phase 2 Gap Analysis & Planning (mostly by 4/04) A. Revise NAVAIR Instructions as necessary B. Develop a NAVAIR Software Acquisition Process Improvement Program (SAPIP) C. Build or identify a support infrastructure Phase 3 Implementation A. PMs execute to NAVAIR Instructions page 23

25 NAVAIR Plan (Software Acquisition Process Improvement Program SAPIP) Owned by the Program Mgmt Competency Approved by the SLC (target March 04) Implemented by Assistant PEOs Supported by the SRC & Competencies SAPIP status Phase 1 of plan has been implemented Outstanding tasks: Continue orientations, define compliance measurements, execute & track progress page 24

26 Implementation Steps for NAVAIR PMs Gauge whether you comply with the updated NAVAIR Instructions Validate and document your acquisition processes Processes include entry criteria, steps, exit criteria and measurements Competencies are responsible for any additional how-to processes Develop and implement software acquisition process improvement plans and measurement programs [per NAVAIRINST & ] page 25

27 Acquisition-focused SW Improvement Hypotheses Do what makes sense for your organization (Section 804 is not prescriptive) No clear, singular improvement model for benchmarking; pick one that supports your business goals Need to emphasize and re-emphasize that Section 804 is about the acquirer Lessons learned from SW development improvement are directly applicable page 26

28 Support for Software Acquisition Process Improvement NAVAIR s Software Resource Center (SRC) will help acquisition programs to: Identify their improvement goals and performance measures Identify, document and baseline their current processes against best practices Develop a measurement program and process improvement POA&M Define their improvement program training and support needs Find resources to help satisfy those needs page 27
